Ahh, just realized the Mautrix Signal bridge I use no longer requires SignalD

fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.comto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do you combat boredom?English3·2 days agoAn unfathomably long list of projects and things to learn.
I like to pick up hobbies that require me to learn skills. Like sure, you could buy a 3D printer, orrrr you could build a Voron, learn FreeCAD, learn to filament tune, add a DIY air filter, add a DIY filament changer, and on and on.

However, pressurized in your body it may he heavier. I see no studies measuring this.
fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.comto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Long Island man wearing 9kg-metal necklace dies after being sucked into MRI machineEnglish41·3 days agoHis wife told News 12 Long Island in a recorded interview that she was undergoing an MRI on her knee when she asked the technician to get her husband to help her get off the table. She said she called out to him.
Where does it say he ran in? I mean, what you say sounds right, but this doesn’t read like “freaking out”
Edit: Sounds like she did not freak out, but called to him to help her stand up after it was complete (bad knee), but before he was authorized to enter. This seems more like an honest mistake and tragedy. https://www.cnn.com/2025/07/20/health/mri-machine-death-long-island
How is signald broken? I’m using it with Matrix now just fine.
Is there a working Signal+Prosody setup?
The problem is interpretation. You read it one way because of your life context and frame of mind. Many others will have a different interpretation.
Yes they are called “transports”.
As for when I tried to change the URL, I was moving all services from publicly resolvable DNS to
.lan
, and Matrix is an issue because you can’t change that after the fact, even if you haven’t federated.
Doesn’t matter bridge work by “adding a user” to rooms, vs just your user?
Promising, would need to supplement GV and Signal, but this gets me halfway there, thanks.
Unfortunately the whole point of my system is bridges/transports. I don’t even use Matrix itself, I use it as a centralized messenger.
Overall I’ve been happy with Matrix (private not federated), but it’s very convoluted. Whenever anything goes wrong it’s really difficult to figure out why, as there is a lot of complexity. And once you set something up, it’s really hard if not impossible to make a change.
For instance, since it’s built for federation, changing the URL is impossible.
So I’d like to try out XMPP since it’s much more lightweight and simple. I may not switch, but want to explore.
Well put. Don’t insult the person doing what they can.

The second driver might not have seen the chicken until it was too late. Nothing in the story indicates that the second driver purposely hit the chicken, but bear mace in an enclosed environment is no joke and can lead to permanent damage. Nothing about this story is “right”.
My understanding is this was done for content, not for real world use.
